Digital Negative was developed to address the lack of an open standard for the proprietary and unique raw files created by each digital camera. DNG allows photographers to archive their raw camera files in a single format for easy cataloging and access in the future. With the format specification freely available, any developer can build software that supports and takes advantage of DNG. For more information, visit the Digital Negative page.
The Adobe DNG Converter for Mac is able to process raw content generated by some of the most popular cameras out there, from Casio, Nokia, Pentax, Ricoh, Samsung, Hasselblad, DJI, Leica digital cameras.
However, you have to keep in mind that not all models are supported: you can access the Adobe website to view a complete list of supported devices.
Finding your way around Adobe DNG Converter is fairly easy: in the main window you must specify the source folder for the raw camera content, the output destination, set up a renaming rule, and the output file extension (.dng or .DNG).
